Went to Moscow to battle "team Russia" in Secret Wars @ Faces & Laces - We had a great time and made some good friends! cheers to all that helped out and got involved and a huge big up to Reebok Russia for getting us out there.

Moscow is an amazing place and I would recommend it to anyone... Some interesting food and cheap Russian vodka always near by ;)

We had 3 days off where we checked out all parts of the city and made some good connections - we also ended up hanging out with magician Dynamo, who was actually staying in the room next door at the hotel... This guy is seriously talented, check him out on YOUTUBE.

yesterday we went on a little sight seeing visit - below are some of our shots!

THE BATTLE NIGHT!

RUSSIA (Djagarta & Sick Systems) vs. ENGLAND (Teck 1 & Wen)

The rules and infoKick off - with the Russians on the left and UK on the right

The battle was held on the Reebok stand, over the 90 mins we must have had over 1000 people come and check it out. The reaction from the Russians was great! I am sure we will be back soon.

England and Russia meeting in the middle

Team England - Teck (Left), Wen (Right) - Theme was bear baiting the old and very popular russian cartoon character "Cheburashka"

The Russians all think we are Cockneys ;), so they decided to crunch us up with Vasilly's trademark character.

This will be big! If you like wearing clothes made by some of the most forward thinking people in the Capital, then get yourself down to 'The Reset'. Pretty All City will be there, aswell as A.IN.T, Trapstar and a whole host of other British Brands. Its a unique chance to buy a couple of older garms at discount or be the first to snap up some samples and brand new bits. Admission is free. I do believe that the Brand New Nike Air Yeezy is being launched on the same day. So come down and soak up the sun and the good Vibes!! On a personal note P.A.C will be launching a small exclusive line of Summer tee's, CMYK CMYK!!

The night was booming! The tunes were throbbing with the amazing DJ set!

It was a close battle with both teams flexing different styles, Jimi and Teck flew in just hours before the battle so they were jet lagged but as usual the gents morphed up a beautifully clean, bold and well composed battle piece taking a striking lead from the start. The Scots, Vues and Conzo brought two different styles to the table stirring up a tasty Glasgow flavoured inky broth!

In the end the Scots managed to scoop a win on their home turf

*Crowd Vote (an obvious one!) - Scotland

*Judge 1 (Amy from the Recoat Gallery) - England

*Judge 2 (Australian Graffiti Artist ‘Smug’) – Scotland

Thanks to all those involved and who helped make Scotland’s 1st ever Secret Wars happen!!!

It’s just begun! So keep ears perked up for future battles in Scotland!!
